Blade Runner 2049

Blade Runner 2049 is a cautionary tale that came too late. I have certainly felt a lot of the effects from just looking at the internet and the world. “Literally Me” has been tossed around in this film as a joke that opens a whole can of worms showing the vulnerabilities in men, especially with loneliness/Worthlessness. Where real connections have been lost and artificial connections like porn becoming normal. The purpose of our lives has been completely lost by so many people wandering around suicidal and depressed. Most of us have become the very thing we said we wouldn’t become when we were younger. This is where Blade Runner 2049 shines. It captures the horrible state of most humans right now so accurately it's scary. With K being the stand-in for us. His entire life's purpose is for someone else. So when he finds something genuine, the wooden horse he breaks down since he might be human, he might be something in his useless life and world. The wooden horse is different for everyone. Maybe finding god was your awakening, or for me finding movies like this a red pill in a way. Then as we all know K learns that he was a nobody just like so many people. Most of us die a nobody and never accomplish our dreams or anything worthwhile. On top of that learns the only genuine feelings he had for someone who never cared about him; it was just to use him for profit. The world around you doesn't love you at all. It's harsh to say it, I know but it's true. Everything is so artificial that you're just 1 out of billions who have and will walk it. If I killed myself right now sure, maybe people would be sad, but I would be forgotten within time. I'll just be another tear in endless rain. It's a harsh reality of existence because everything about your death is up to your fate if there is a god that loves you, hates you or does not exist. Though K could have given up and succumbed to the society around him. Like so many others from depression. So then why would he fight back instead of accepting the pain? Even though he died in the end, he sacrificed himself for something greater than himself creating his purpose in life. Even though K wasn't human he was more selfless than most people since he used his short life to the fullest knowing he was going to die in the process. I think that's the lesson that should be taken away from this film. Don’t waste your time being a victim of the world, but be proud that you're alive even if the world around you collapses. As long as you're happy when death knocks on your door then you're truly a human. I truly hope you accomplish all of your dreams. Yes you, I truly hope for the best I may not know what you even look like but I love you all
